Summary
On this special bonus episode, Warriors GM Bob Myers and KJ had a conversation last summer after a disappointing season, and you'll see why it's no surprise they were able to turn things around and be crowned champions this season. They chopped it up about:
Winning the 1995 NCAA Championship at UCLA.
How working for Arn Tellum prepared him to be an NBA GM.
Will the Warriors win another NBA Championship in the next 5 years?
Managing egos and personalities on the Warriors championship squads.
Relationships and why they matter.
Why “winning” is an attitude.
Ed O’Bannon in all his chair slinging glory.
Warriors organization commitment to social change.
Is Steph Curry the greatest PG to ever play?

| 0:42.3 | Bob, what's going on man? It's a pleasure and honor my friend. I never thought I'd be doing a podcast with you. No, I mean it's a long day it's a long way from our days back at UCLA lockers next to each other and |
| 0:56.5 | you always complained about stuff I was doing in life, but we'll touch on that in a little bit. Yeah, good to that later. |
| 1:04.4 | We'll touch on that a little bit, Bob. |
| 1:06.1 | So I wanted to start to show off, like I do with all of our guests, okay? |
| 1:09.4 | We want to give our audience and our listeners an idea of who the person is, the foundation that made the man or the |
| 1:16.1 | woman for that matter, because I've had female guests on the show into the person they are today. |
| 1:19.7 | I just want to know where you're born, the city, the neighborhood, and how did that community impact you and sort of who you are today? |
| 1:29.0 | So yeah, born and raised East Bay, we were joking before I came on. I was a Warriors fan growing up. So that's a little known fact or maybe well known. I grew up in a nutshell, Chris, white middle class, you know, basic, basic two parents, parents still together, |
| 1:48.0 | 50 years, married, and a backyard with a basketball hoop and a pool and you know why is that relevant it's not really the |

| 2:49.1 | I didn't have, you know, nothing was given to me professionally |
